Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! โœˆ๏ธ


An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ญ


Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Did you guys retain your username from Reddit?

Nagdadalawang isip ako whether I should just make a new account with a new username. I still like my username that's why I wanna keep it. But at the same time some people I know in person already knows my Reddit username so my pseudo-anonymity is somehow "compromised".

How about you guys, did you use your old usernames? And why?

[โ€“] decadentrebel@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I did. Mostly so those coming in here know it's us and they won't end up on the tankie side of Lemmy, lol.

Was actually a good idea and it made a lot of sense for r/ph mods. I actually just randomly stumbled upon this instance without being guided from Reddit so nung nakakita ako familiar names, I felt kind of at home. Not to mention yung banners and the sidebar info are similar.

[โ€“] rman0159@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yes. This is my username from Reddit as well as the now defunct Pinoyexchange.

[โ€“] chickendestroy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Symbianize represent ako dito. Hahaha! I'm not ashamed to admit na I became where I am now by stealing internet during my high school days.

[โ€“] einsofohr@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

nung high school ako much simplier yung trick, "go cancel go"/ "back cancel back" lang, timing lang ng pagpindot tapos ayun magloload na yung page/file

Yung alam ko dati yung mag eenable/disable ka ng roaming tas magreregister ka sa isang promo or something. Tas parang around 60-70% chance your sim will bug out tas free internet ka na until Globe patches it. Then there's also Ultrasurf saka HotspotShield VPN. Lel

my tricks are much more ancient pa eh hahahaha around 2006 or 2007 pa yun

iiba ako at magno-no. new platform, new self. chz!

Yes. Kasi supot si $pd and makikipagsuntukan ako sa kanya. As I gloat over him in a victorious pose, I will make sure he remembers the name.

well my user name is actually common, baka maunahan pa ako eh

ein means nothing, zero

sof means finite

so ein sof means infinite

kayo ba anu meaning behind your user name?

Mine's a play on "seek and destroy"

That's it.

[โ€“] Periwinkledot@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes. Para hindi na ko mahirapan mag-isip lol

I think this makes the most sense. Haha! Kahit ako ayaw ko magpalit kaso ayun nga. People know me by my username. Di ko alam sino nagkalat nun within my circle so I feel a little bit more vulnerable. Haha!
